WHEREAS, in 1990 the voters of California passed Proposition 111 and the requirement
that urbanized counties develop and implement a Congestion Management Program; and

been designated as the Congestion Management Agency responsible for Los Angeles County's
Congestion Management Program; and

be exempt from the Congestion Management Program based on resolutions passed by local
jurisdictions representing a majority of a county's jurisdictions with a majority of the county's
population; and

step with current regional, State, and federal planning processes and requirements, including new
State requirements for transportation performance measures related to greenhouse gas reduction;
and

staff to work with local jurisdictions to prepare the necessary resolutions to exempt Los Angeles
County from the Congestion Management Program.
